Unless the .log files are being corrupted on two machines multiple times a day, that cannot be the case. I have to delete the respective files. I've played around with permissions and gone so far as to reset the permissions to 777 every minute as a troubleshooting step, same with ownership, doesn't change. I've duplicated settings from an install with similar scripts/configs that has been running for over a year, still doesn't work. I will have to look around for the rateup syntax, but it seems very strange that I have two issues with almost an exact duplicate install of a known working install and config and I'm getting errors on 2 of the 3. I still have to wonder if it may be an issue with the version I'm running.
